Thanks

Thanks for correcting me... I always thought it was Blue Ridge Mountain Scout Reservation, considering it's the "Blue Ridge Mountains Council." I moved it back. Thanks again!--Unionhawk (talk) 20:53, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Blue Ridge Scout Reservation, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view
policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to
    Assume good faith, especially when there's probably an Admin watching the page... No hard feelings?--Unionhawk Talk Review 23:26, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply

    • You just can't make it easy... can you? Oh snap... Eagle Scout, Wood Badger and Admin... *begins to respect a LOT more...* anyways... from an edit summary, "Look on the official website. It is "Blue Ridge Scout Reservation" I work here." And, good idea on declaring an interest... I should probably go do that myself, honestly.--Unionhawk Talk Review 22:36, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    OK: That edit summary wasn't the best idea. I think if cards are showing, then this should be resolved. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 22:49, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    Disputed fair use rationale for File:BRSR Logo.jpg}

    Thank you for uploading File:BRSR Logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

    • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
    • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

    Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an

    image copyright tag
    ; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

    If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our

Unfortunately, there are some guidelines that we need to follow with copyrighted images. Specifically, you need to add a source for the image (a link to a website will do), a copyright tag (there are some listed at

    help desk. If you do not fix these images, and you continue to make bad uploads, you will be blocked and your images will be deleted. Thanks for your contributions! STBotI (talk) 00:01, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply

    Images uploaded

    Okay, in case all the bot-generated messages aren't making it clear enough, you need to provide a source for the images you upload, otherwise, they will be deleted on 28 April, 2009 (UTC). I have reason to believe that you took these pictures, but you absolutely must confirm this.--Unionhawk Talk 00:58, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    In fact, if you did take these pictures, and are releasing them into public domain, you should consider moving them to Commons. But, more importantly, you must declare the author of the images.--Unionhawk Talk 01:05, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    {{

    }} I apologize, this is my first venture into contributing to Wikipedia. I want to make this page correct, but am sometimes unsure of how to do this. I provided a source for Camp Ottari Dining Hall, and want to make sure the author and source information are acceptable. I am also unsure of how to make the information for the logo correct.--Raider161 (talk) 15:54, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi there. It's never a problem asking for help! Copyright is a bit of a minefield, unfortunately, and I'm not an expert. However, the critical question is, did you take this picture? If you did, mention it here, and I'm sure we can take it from there finding the right templates. --GedUK  16:11, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    The logo is fine. It is already tagged as "fair use." The photos need specification. All you need to do is provide an author in the "Author" paramater in the {{

    Oops, I forgot. You also need to provide a "Source" and description as well in the {{information}} tag. See Template:Information/doc for more help on what these parameters should include.--Unionhawk Talk
